Dew on the Wall
Style: Glockenspiel

[Verse 1]
The moon leans low along the low stone wall tonight
Gathering soft on every leaf a small and silver bead
And somewhere in that hush the whole wide world holds still
Just to watch you breathing slow, which is all it needs

[Pre-chorus]
Every drop upon the garden waits without a sound
Nothing hurries, nothing frets beneath this gentle dark
Close your eyes now, let the quiet wrap around

[Chorus]
Callie, the night has folded soft around your bed
Nothing can reach you here, nothing at all
Sleep now, Callie, let the hours drift instead
Safe as the dew that settles by the wall

[Verse 2]
I found the wall still warm from all the sun it kept
And laid my hand upon the stone to feel it there
You are that kind of warmth, the sort that never leaves
Held in the dark and carried soft through midnight air

[Bridge]
Nothing asks of you tonight but rest
No road to walk, no reaching, no far place to be

[Chorus]
Callie, the night has folded soft around your bed
Nothing can reach you here, nothing at all
Sleep now, Callie, let the hours drift instead
Safe as the dew that settles by the wall

[Outro]
The moon will keep its watch along the low stone wall
And I will keep mine quietly, right here, over you
